Once upon a path
An occasional glance may find a Tessa
Nestled among the pine
It’s a simple little flower
That peeks in your attention
The beauty in it’s lines
Are pure as the light
The beauty in it’s color
Matches no other time
It’s petals catch the gentle wind
Capturing fleeting moments in the sun
While it’s spindly stems sway seductively
Alluring [...]<hr /><small>Copyright &#169; 2008 Braden Stephens. This feed is for personal, non-commercial use only. <br /> The use of this feed on other websites breaches copyright.

Leave the best of man.
The future has little time.
No one to browse our writing.
Only to select and praise few rhymes.
Your life feels very short
but even shorter when you are dead
and being remembered
by those who never knew you.
So capture the best
in your home, your art and love.
Anything less will be forgotten
and your work will [...]<hr /><small>Copyright &#169; 2008 Braden Stephens. This feed is for personal, non-commercial use only. <br /> The use of this feed on other websites breaches copyright.

I told you I was quiet and shy
You believed me
My pie in the sky
You said some things don&#8217;t matter
Living your life is sometimes&#8230;
And other times sadder
Where can this happen?
My love, a you, and gone the latter
Stars explode to shed this light
And the shadows make your eyes so deep

I thought I lost you
I turned, you were gone.
Up and down aisle nine
I never saw the sign.
Then I saw you standing in line

&#8230;looking at him
I went searching for a bottle of wine.
You said he was a friend.
I&#8217;m sure he was.
Taking advantage
Always winning your serve.
Never a love
always keeping your nerve.
A super intellect?

by Braden


Tonight’s guests:
Teresa Palmer
Ana Ivanovic
Lyle Lovett
George Clooney
It’s Sunday night, so, it must be another impromptu dinner party. One thing led to another, as it always does, and Marisa&#8217;s and I&#8217;s place became a “destination” on Sundays for casual seeking locals and visiting friends and acquaintances. Thankfully, the guests are diverse and interesting given [...]<hr /><small>Copyright &#169; 2008 Braden Stephens.

Knowing the next moment will be the best.

Change it.  Colour it.  And make it my own
